Alert: Gingrich Says
Americans Only Have 1 Choice on Trump… GOP Appalled, by tiffani Grey, 5/19/17
Former House speaker and current Fox
News contributor Newt Gingrich has a message for conservative Americans: It’s time
to fight.
In an op-ed published Thursday entitled,
“Surrender or fight, our country is at stake” and published on Fox News, the former Georgia
congressman explained his belief that the leftist mainstream
media has
declared war — and that they are winning.
Republicans in Congress have been led to
believe that remaining silent will keep them out of the cross-hairs, but
Gingrich charged them with a much more active task: Get up and fight.
“Congressional Republicans are rapidly
approaching a crossroads,” he wrote. “Some have already surrendered by giving
up on town hall meetings. Others have accepted the news media’s false narrative
as the truth.
“Republicans must decide if they are
going to fight for what they believe in or retreat to the tenuous safety of the
beltway bubble,” Gingrich argued.
The false news, which President Donald
Trump repeatedly calls out to anyone willing to listen, often attacks Gingrich, the president, first lady Melania
Trump, first daughter Ivanka Trump, and literally anyone else willing to risk
the media’s wrath by daring to stand with Trump and not against him. The
leftist media label these Trump allies enemies of the state and continually
assails their reputation here and abroad.
Gingrich spoke to this situation
specifically: “I have been overseas for the last three days, and it has been
sickening to see so many foreigners terrified because they unknowingly believe
the news media’s false reports and vicious attacks. The only version of
President Trump they know is the one portrayed in the 24-hour cesspool of CNN and the daily acrimony of the New York
Times. Sadly, our own nation’s news media is doing more to undermine America’s
image than Al Jazeera or Pravda combined.”
Gingrich outlined the only rational response: Give House
and Senate Republicans a real “talking to.”
“If Senate Republicans implement an
all-out campaign, they could pick up all 10 seats and have the largest GOP
majority since the election of 1868,” Gingrich said, adding that while House Republicans have a steeper hill to climb, “Defeating
the left’s attacks will require House Republicans to engage in significantly
more training and planning than they are used to.”
At the end of the day, if we do not
stand up for something, we will fall for anything — and in this case it will be
falling for false narratives designed to keep Trump from fulling his campaign
promises, one of which was to drain the swamp that perpetrates these kind of
willful attacks on American democracy.
“Further, surrendering will destroy
America as we know it. Far from making America great again, we will have
yielded our country to left-wing thugs, liars and intimidators,” Gingrich
concluded. “Those of us who truly want to make America great again have
one choice: Fight.”
Newt Gingrich has never been one to
mince words. The question remains: Will enough Americans listen to make a
difference?
